I just recently transferred new characters over to balmung myself~ it's easier then you think! Just make a bunch of random characters, make sure the names are names of people already on the server. And then make sure you log into them and complete the first batch of quests given to you by the adventurers guild. Then you have to just wait three-four days for them to become eligible to move, and bam move all 8 in one go for 18$. The extra alts are in case you want to make new characters, on balmung they'll require a name change so you can name them what you want. And with the free fantasia you get from your first 30 days of play, they can look however you want.
:3 I hope this helps! And if you do come over to balmung, seek me out! I'd love to rp with you ^ ^
